I have been practicing orthodontics since 2002 and started Hoffman Orthodontics in Crystal Lake in 2006. I know I could not have chosen a more fulfilling career; what other job allows a person to make positive, lasting changes in the lives of patients? Whether I am working with a young child or someone whos 75, Im creating a beautiful smile that will help that person be happier and healthier.
I create individual care plans for each of my patients. Everyone is different and deserves to have a treatment approach that has been tailored to their clinical needs, lifestyle, and aesthetic concerns. Its my goal to have the finished smile be one that provides a proper bite along with being attractive.
Continuing orthodontic education and adopting new techniques and technology sets us apart from other practices. I normally complete at least three times the required continuing education hours each year. I love continuing my education because orthodontics is a rapidly changing field. New technology increases efficiency and accuracy, so we can deliver the most incredible results for patients.
Im directly involved with many professional organizations. I currently am the President of the McHenry County Dental Society. I attend all American Association of Orthodontists annual meetings. Im also a charter member of the Northwest Suburban Chicago Seattle Study Club. Additionally, I am active with Invisalign and take part in its research and development. I have had the honor of testing several of the companys new products.
My team is outstanding. I feel lucky to have them working for me, and without them I could not provide the level of quality care that I do. They make my work enjoyable and each is as dedicated as I am to helping our patients achieve stellar smiles. I strive to achieve a team that works well together and that I can count on. I'm proud to have accomplished this.
I love to give back to and support our community. Ive always been involved with the Its All About Kids charity. The organization raises money for families who have a child with cancer. I also participate in the Give Kids a Smile program, through which I donate free orthodontic treatment.
Our office holds an annual summer food drive to help stock the shelves at our local food pantry. We have helped raise funds for the Leukemia & Lymphoma Society, the Muscular Dystrophy Association, the American Heart Association, and many others.
I grew up in the northwest Chicago suburbs and live there today. I share my life with my wife Jane, and three children: Tyler, Charlie, and Kate. I love time with my family and play sports with them as well as coach their sports teams.
I play softball and volleyball when I can. When I was younger, I placed third in the US in a basketball free-throw-shooting contest and was once called a prime-time basketball player by Dick Vitale. I also love the outdoors. When Im not in the office, you can often find me with my family watching my kids play sports, or enjoying Three Oaks Recreation Area.
We recognize that all our patients are unique and deserve to receive orthodontic care that reflects their individual needs. Our experienced and talented team is committed to working with you and your family to create a comfortable, stress-free, and rewarding orthodontic experience every time you visit our practice.
I started working in the field of oral healthcare in 2005 and gladly joined our team in 2010. It has been a great experience working for our office. I love helping people, which is something I can do every day at work. My job is to assist Dr. Hoffman with procedures, and provide excellent care for each patient. My goal is to make everyone happy, and Dr. Hoffman works very hard to make this happen. He has a great approach to each procedure and truly cares about how patients feel.
This office has been my one and only job in dentistry, and I could not have asked for a better place to work. Dr. Hoffman is great with the patients and staff. He is comforting and helps everyone enjoy their time in the office. I love seeing the changes in our patients smiles over the course of treatment and the difference it makes to their confidence and self-esteem. Dr. Hoffman and our phenomenal staff make certain that it is always a positive impact. I make sure that the paperwork end of the office runs smoothly, coordinate patient finances and insurance, and do whatever else is needed to manage our office well.
I live in Huntley with my great husband George and daughters, Taylor and Kiersten. I have two more daughters named Kim and Nikki. They are grown and on their own. I enjoy traveling with my family to softball tournaments and watching my grandkids.
Working with Dr. Hoffman has been a wonderful way to start my career in orthodontics. I especially like how he makes patients relax and feel at ease. His commitment to providing quality care is unmistakable. Our team is dedicated to the same thing. The goal is always to make patients happy. I can really support this because I love working with patients and making sure their needs are well taken care of. From one-on-one patient care to doing lab work, I make sure that we provide stellar orthodontic care.
I was born and raised in Woodstock. I love living here with my golden retriever, Maddon. We like going on our walks through the neighborhood. I also enjoy cooking, playing volleyball, and just being outside.
I grew up in Island Lake, IL and currently live in Algonquin. Away from the office, I love being with my daughter and enjoy watching her learn and grow. I also enjoy reading, working out, and being outside.

I love working with patients and getting to know them as they move through their treatment. Dr. Hoffman is very thorough and personable. He has a way of making each patient feel special and right at home.
I enjoy interacting with patients in the community I grew up in and still call it home. I live with my husband Mike who has been a firefighter for 30 years, and my two daughters. One who has a Bachelor's in Radiologic Sciences, and one who is finishing her degree to be a physical therapy assistant.
My husband and I have lived in McHenry Co. for more than 40 years where we have been very blessed to raise our three sons on the mighty Fox River. In my spare time, I really enjoy gardening, water skiing, hosting family events, training our dog to be a therapy dog and volunteering throughout our community!
I am happy to have landed here at Hoffman Orthodontics. I am enjoying seeing happy patients come in to get braces on and off. I have been in the dental field for the past 30 years, yet this is my first position in the orthodontic field.
I was born and raised in Michigan. I have lived in many different states throughout the United States and even abroad in England. Ive been married to a wonderful man for over 30 years and weve raised two terrific sons. When were not working we love to spend time with family and travel.
I am so excited to be a part of the team here at Hoffman Orthodontics. I have been in the dental field since 2017 and have a passion for customer service. Dr. Hoffman is an amazing orthodontist who has the very best interest of each and every patient in mind. Its clear to me that I have found a wonderful practice to grow with.
I have been in dentistry for over 15 years. I started in general, and I am excited to now be a part of such an incredible team. I love getting to see each and every patient's smile transformation. Dr. Hoffman and the team are always dedicated in delivering the highest quality of care and making sure every patient has a comfortable and positive experience. I couldn't have asked for a better team to join.
My passion for teeth started in 2012 and still continues. I love to help people learn about their braces and teaching them about oral hygiene. Working along side Dr. Hoffman is such a pleasure because he truly cares about helping create a beautiful and healthy smile!
At Hoffman Orthodontics, Dr. Robert Hoffman and our team provide individualized care that creates incredible smiles. Each of us believes in honesty, open communication, and genuinely getting to know the people behind the smiles we treat. Were committed to delivering ethical, efficient, and gentle care that transforms lives.
Every day we see the changes that happen as a result of orthodontic care. Patients who were once ashamed of their crooked teeth and hid their smile now smile and laugh with easy confidence. These amazing changes happen every day here at Hoffman Orthodontics and we love making them occur!
The technology available today is truly amazing. Here at Hoffman Orthodontics we have a 3D scanner so there is no longer a need for messy impressions. We also have a 3D digital X-ray machine so that Dr. Hoffman can diagnose with extreme accuracy. All of this new technology leads to unparalleled patient comfort along with better and faster treatment.
Dr. Hoffman also cares about the environment. Our office has a rooftop solar panel system that helps to power the office. In fact, on a sunny summer day, our office generates more electricity than we use.
Our goal is to foster a positive, fun, and welcoming environment where you will feel at home. The minute you step through the doors, our front office staff will greet you warmly by name and ask how youre doing. This isnt just politeness; we really do care about you. At no point will you ever feel like youre another number on a chart or set of teeth in the treatment chair. Instead, well work hard to get to know you as the remarkable individual you are.
We want to help you achieve the smile of your dreams and we want to teach you to care for it, too. Our team will educate you about your unique dental health. Well talk about good home care, making healthy eating decisions, and developing good habits. Youre putting a lot of time and effort into developing your new smile, so we want you to keep it healthy and beautiful for a lifetime!
We believe adults and seniors deserve straight teeth and beautiful smiles. Todays orthodontic options empower us to create smiles for everyone, and we can do so virtually invisibly! With clear braces or clear aligners, no one needs to know youre undergoing treatment unless you want to tell them. What people will notice, though, is that youre smiling a lot more often, and with greater confidence.
